So I’m still not sure exactly what’s needed. Is the metallic paper used for white? What products exactly do I need to do the 4th step. Is there a written step by step process on you website?

[@stevennope5139]

very helpful video! for step 4 film free, does it leave a black underside of the white decal? Let's say its on a clear cup, would the white decal have a black underside if i were to look at it from the back?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Steven Thank you that's a good question. Yes, in this case the letters would look black from the back. If you don't like the black underside, you could try other dark colours and it could still work. Darker the colour there is more toner present, so there is more chance that the transfer to work through.

[@expataviator7107]

For the last example (which is what I want to try) do you have to use the metallic detail paper for it to work? Does it come with the glue?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, this metallic decal paper doesn't need a glue. The glue is for the other product called "Film-Free" Metallic decal paper.

[@jw200]

Hello, awesome stufff. What if i want to use some metal surface instead of cup? Lets say aluminium panel or even some plastic? Is it possible? How much heat and for how long user should apply? Is there detailed instruction anywhere? Thanks

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Yes, you can apply on aluminium panel and plastics. Please email us for more details. [e-mail]

[@satoshitroll]

Dude! You just saved my life! Thank You very much! unfortunely, they doesn't send to Brazil i_i Well, at least, now i have more options! Thanks

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Joao Thank you for your kind words. We do ship to Brazil if you purchase from Ebay.

[@solsken30]

On step 4 is it possible for get the white color to make appear the white color knowing that on the design there are various colors ?

[@gregthegreatofficial]

Is there a way to transfer acrylic or oil paint on your laser printed image kinda like the 4th way but instead of white, paint coated sheet?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Monte Sorry we haven't tried painting them on our decal papers, so we can't really answer that question. You are going to have to try and found that out yourself.

[@valeriolupia3210]

Hi Film-free Metallic Waterslide Decal Paper (white color) and Film-free Waterslide Decal Paper on amazon (italy)?? thanks

[@mode3fpv931]

I would love to try the white metallic waterslide decal paper, but i am in the UK and it seems the shipping options that you have a very expensive ($44 shipping for something that costs $17 ?) do you have any cheaper options for shipping to the UK?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi Unfortunately we do not have any cheaper options for shipping white metallic waterslide decal paper

[@solsken30]

Bonjour, Je suis intéressé par vos produits mais je ne comprends pas la vidéo en anglais Pourriez vous m'expliquer en français la quatrième étape "film free white decal paper" Par avance merci pour votre réponse

[@jackburton3212]

Question my dude; I've tried this but for some reason there's always a thin white border around the decal, basically the thickness of the paper. How did you manage to avoid that on your decal? Also, ink always seems to dilute into the water, even a little, so I lose color around the edges. I've tried coating the sheet before and after cutting the decals out but it still happens.

[@theaussienurseflipper.8113]

He cut off the white border after he applied to the cup. After you print your decal paper out you need to spray with a clear gloss and wait till it dry

[@dashcandlesph1844]

Hi, what's the program you are using in editing? Thanks.

[@krlegulas]

illustrator

[@rodneyvonC]

my laminator only has one speed, will this still work for method #4 using the metallic (white) decal paper?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Joseph. We recommend to use a laminator that can control the speed. But you can still try it. Thank you.

[@jmd28522]

What about to print in a White Decal?? (Not transparent)

[@rangerdoc1029]

Do you know if anyone has had success cutting your white film with a vinyl cutter rather than hand trimming letters?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Jason Yes, it is much better to use a vinyl cutter. The only issue is that the machine is not very accessible to the public so we just recommend scissors. Thank you Jimmy

[@syedroma9499]

Where can I get the transparent decal and does it stick stick sticker.

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

We have the SunnyScopa Clear Waterslide Decal Paper in stock on Amazon US, Amazon DE and on the global website in South Korea.

[@syedroma9499]

What is the transparent decal brand.

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

You can use sunnyscopa (or scopa) brand laser decal paper

[@Jordan_Morgan]

Can i use silver instead of white?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Yes, you can do it with our product called "Film-Free Metallic Decal Paper". You can also find the video in our channel.

[@giovannibadalamenti6132]

Where can I find that blue printing paper?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Giovanni. Working with white toner printer(OKI printer), blue decal paper is "laser decal paper blue" and printing black ink on the blue printing paper is using "film free metallic waterslide decal paper white".

[@mdBLF]

what is this blue printing paper?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Bernadette, So it is one of three papers of so called Film-Free Metallic Decal Paper; the blue printing papers, white laminating sheets and the "metallic" films. In this video the films would be white so technically what you are transferring to the surface is the film. Hopefully that answers your question. :)

[@samanthasalazar6106]

whats the progam you are using

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Adobe photoshop , illustration program :)

[@eveninglakegems9410]

My printer doesn't print black. Just dark grey.

[@leylandolympian3081]

Metallic?? Not white in colour??

[@Zen_Modeling]

So if I want to print out a Model car decal that is just White Outline font text saying “System 1” that will be going onto a Black model surface. [Very small as in letters only 1mm tall] 📍I would design the graphic to show what?? [A Black Background in the Design]??? I’m confused, please help elaborate a bit more for my ADHD🧠 Please…🤔 Thank You! Lee

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi Sorry for the late reply Unless you have a printer that can print out white ink, you have to either - Cut out every single letter in shape - Print out the letters with the same colour background as the surface you are trying to stick it to Since the design you are willing to print out is very small, we do not recommend the first solution. So print out design like this - Background colour: Black - Letters: White I hope this helps Thank you

[@Zen_Modeling]

@@SUNNYSCOPA Thank’s is there a “White Waterslide Decal” you prefer? I’ve got a couple of very old (10+ yrs) “Testers” White decal sheets I’ve hung on too. Thanks again! Lee

After completed, there is no sprung

[@HyongJoonKim]

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Hyong Joon Yes, you can wipe it off using rubbing alcohol. :)

[@constanciodomnicpereira750]

Can i get this in India

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

No, sorry we don't have a distributor in India at the moment.

[@Samuele_Lini_ARS]

What about print with white toner on a film-free transparent paper?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

That’s very good if you have white toner printer.

[@scottlyttle5586]

Did you neglect to mention you are using white label/decal sheets?

[@SUNNYSCOPA]

Hi, Scott I don't believe so :) That white decal is the Film-Free Metallic Paper. 4:40 Kind regards, Jimmy

[@TubeWatcher]

[@giovannibadalamenti6132]

I TRIED THE LAST METHOD AND IT WORKS GOOD. WAS JUST WONDERING IF THERE IS ANY OTHER DIFFERENT COLORS OTHER THAN WHITE, GOLD AND SILVER? I WAS LOOKING FOR LIKE STANDARD COLORS LIKE GREEN AND ORANGE. CAN YOU HELP?
